The Auburn softball team is headed to the College World Series final best of 3 games against either Oklahoma or LSU. No Auburn softball team has been this far before. Most likely we will play the Sooners. After our game tonight OU will only need to beat LSU once to advance and they will have by far the most fans in the stands tomorrow night.
The Tigers took a 7 to 4 lead into the 7th. All of our runs came on homers. There were two 3-run blasts and a solo shot.
FSU tied it on a three-run homer to send the game into the 8th inning. In the top of the 8th the Seminoles left the bases loaded. I knew with Rachel Walters pitching it would get hairy before it was over, but I didn't think they would tie it send the game into the 8th inning.
We get a single to start the 8th. Their leftfielder can't handle the ball cleanly and our runner scoots around to third. There is a short grand ball to the their third baseman, but the throw to home is high and before the catcher can get the glove down our runner slides in for the winning run. Wow! What an ending to send Auburn to the finals which will start either tomorrow night or the next night.
